Browser Automation with browser-use CLI

The browser-use command provides fast, persistent browser automation. A background daemon keeps the browser open across commands, giving ~50ms latency per call.

Prerequisites

browser-use doctor    # Verify installation

For setup details, see https://github.com/browser-use/browser-use/blob/main/browser_use/skill_cli/README.md

Core Workflow

- Navigate: browser-use open <url> - launches headless browser and opens page

- Inspect: browser-use state - returns clickable elements with indices

- Interact: use indices from state (browser-use click 5, browser-use input 3 "text")

- Verify: browser-use state or browser-use screenshot to confirm

- Repeat: browser stays open between commands
